Grooming

About us

Dapple Up is a Kentucky-based, equestrian-owned grooming brand built on a simple premise: horses bathed frequently deserve a shampoo that's both thorough and gentle. Born on the Thoroughbred racetrack, where daily bathing is standard, Dapple Up was formulated to clean deeply without stripping the natural coat.

Proudly carrying the Kentucky Proud certification, the company crafts every bottle in small batches using plant-derived ingredients and carefully selected essential oils. What began in the wash racks of the racetrack has grown into a trusted staple across sport horse programs, hunter/jumper barns, racing operations, and everyday riding stables worldwide.

Dapple Up's concentrated, botanical formula is free from SLS, parabens, artificial dyes, and synthetic fragrances, pH-balanced for all horses, including those with sensitive skin. Endorsed by 5-star eventers, Olympic riders, top Thoroughbred consignors, and professional trainers across every discipline, the line is purpose-built for real barns and real horses.
